Dale Jr Win Quotations

I think we're going to come into the Chase being top three in the points. We'll have six or seven wins this season, if not more.

We are going to win six or seven races and be in the top three in the Chase. If we don't win the championship, it won't be by much.

It has always had a nice kind of grip, which makes it easier for rookie drivers to come in and get comfortable, but the setup is still hard to find. I think when you win somewhere you always carry that confidence into that track no matter what happens.

It's kind of like heat racing. Gives you an idea about your competition going into the 500. I think anytime you line us up, we're going to go for it. I think the qualifying deal, the rules they have now, it takes a little bit away from what it means other than to win it.

I can live with myself knowing I at least tried to win rather than stay in line. We're real happy to come out of here with a top 10.

I'm really disappointed running like this. I'm surprised it's been this way most of the year, but now we have to go out and try to win races. We quit worrying about points a long time ago.

I'm focused on the season and winning races, so I'm not interested in a stunt like this.

It comes down to knowing what you are doing out there. There are guys there, not naming any names, but there are guys you don't wan to get bump-drafted by. And there are guys that you love to see in your rearview mirror.

I think everybody saw it coming, and I'm glad he's back. Last weekend was a good start for us. I was real proud of my team. People assumed that we'd just go through the motions in these final 10 races, but honestly, Tony Jr. coming back has kind of put a jolt in our enthusiasm. He's bound and determined to win some of these races and remind everybody what they've got to deal with next year.

Snap-on Tools has been a part of the Dale Earnhardt Inc. family since my father began racing. Their products have been in our shops for decades and we rely on them to help us win races.

I really think that'll happen. I've informally talked to Richard (Childress), just so he knew I wanted to do that. I'll drive the No. 3 car toward the end of my career if I've done what I wanted to do at DEI, and that's win championships and win races. And I'll stick around as long as it takes to do it.
